Pasture-Raised Meat Deliveries

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

NIKU Farms Allows Consumers to Customize Their Own Packages

— December 10, 2019 — Business
NIKU Farms is a direct-to-consumer delivery service that connects Canadians to local Ontario farmers who specialize in ethical, pasture-raised meat. The business works with a diverse range of agricultural practices — from the family-owned Stone Horse Farms that boasts pastured pork and chicken to the Dundalk-based Marita Fields which provides 100% grass-fed and finished beef.

Consumers interested in pasture-raised meat can enjoy unparallel convenience and quality through the NIKU Farm delivery service. Buyers are welcomed to customize their package prior to each delivery. They can pause, skip or cancel at any time. In addition, the business also offers an incentive for a subscription versus one-time purchases — consumers are able to save $14 CAD with an on-going delivery set-up.
